Step 14 See battery compartment installation instructions below. Then connect the battery power connector wires together. Test the black sensor wire with your ingers. There will be a clicking sound coming from the valve control module indicating that the faucet is installed properly. Step 15 Connect the black sensor wire to the sensor washer (I). Step 16 Connect the water supply hoses (L) to the valve stops. Turn on the hot and cold water supply and test faucet. NOTE: If the optional 6 extension hose (J) is used between the valve control module (K) and the faucet shank connection (to lower the unit down for accessibility), the rubber washer (R) is not required. If this is an AC adapter installation, skip Battery Compartment Installation and use instructions supplied with the AC adapter. Battery Compartment Installation 1. Remove battery compartment cover by unscrewing the two Phillips screws. Inside the battery compartment (N) there are two large screws and anchors (O). Place the battery compartment (N) in a convenient location ensuring easy access. 2. Secure to wall using screws and anchors (O) or double-sided tape (P). 3. Install four (4) D cell alkaline batteries (Q). Replace cover on battery compartment. Connect battery box connector to valve power connector. Once power is established, you will hear a clicking sound when you place your hand under the faucet. 4. Turn water supply on. The water will automatically come on when you place your hand under the faucet. The water will stay on for a maximum of 15 seconds as long as your hands are under the faucet, and moving. The water will shut off after you remove your hands from the sensing zone or water stream. 5. Verify water supply connections are not leaking. Setting Water Temperature Mix 1. There is a temperature dial on the mixing valve (M). Use a screwdriver to loosen the screw on the dial. [To add hot water, turn the knob to the right or to the left to add cold water. ] 2. Once you have the desired water mix temperature, lock the control knob in place with a screwdriver. 3. There is a temperature adjustment on the optional thermostatic mixing valve (FF). Use an allen wrench to turn adjustment screw to add hot or cold water. 5

8 Troubleshooting Guide 1 2 Problem Cause Solution Install issues due to drainpipe obstructions Faucet not working (No flashing red LED located on valve control module) Drain pipe or other plumbing under the sink or countertop is in the way. Batteries not inserted correctly Improper or poor connection to power supply Use the optional flexible 6 extension hose (J). It is to be placed between the spout shank (A) and the outlet of the valve control module (K). The faucet components can then be assembled off to one side of the drain or other plumbing. Do not add any plumbing or piping components not Included in this kit to the faucet installation as it may cause the faucet to not function or sense properly. Remove cover from battery box (N) check that the batteries (Q) have been inserted to the correct orientation and are making connection to the contacts. Refer to the battery icons located on the base of the battery box tray. Check that the connection from the battery box is fully inserted into the female connector on the valve control module (K) and assure the connector round thumbnut is fully fastened. 3 Faucet not working and no water flows when activated (Red LED is flashing) Low batteries Water source valves turned off Sensor shorted to ground or unit unable to calibrate If red indicator is flashing 5 times every 4 seconds, replace with new Alkaline batteries (Q). Open water source valves and check that there is water flow. If red indicator is flashing once or multiple times every 4 seconds, there is a problem with the installation and the sensor is shorted. To verify the valve control module is working correctly, carefully disconnect the black sensor wire from the connection washer (I). With the wire disconnected, touch the connector at the end of the black wire with your fingers. The sensor should activate and water should come on. Let go of the connector and the water should shut off. If the unit works as described above, it malfunctions when you reconnect the black sensor wire to the spout assembly, then there is an error in the spout and cover plate installation. If the faucet does not activate as described when touching the sensor connector, then you have a grounding issue or there is a broken sensor wire (see troubleshooting below). Improper ground connection If you can touch any of the steel braided supply hoses, the brass fitting on the valve control module, or the mixing valve and it activates the unit, there is improper earth grounding (U). Verify that the ground clamp (U) has been installed and recheck the connections. Verify the clamp is tightly fastened directly to the copper pipe for a proper ground connection. Press reset button on valve control module after making any adjustments. Broken or corrupt sensor wire or defective valve control module electronics. If the connector has broken off of the black sensor wire or the valve control module appears to be defective please contact Technical Concepts. Do not attempt to repair the valve control module (K) or sensor wire. Intermittent cycling and/or water runs on after actuation Poor sensor washer and wire connection Verify the brass nuts () that fasten the connection washer (I) are fully tightened. Reconnect the sensor wire to the washer. Press reset button on valve control module after making any adjustments 4 Insufficient ground connection Verify that the earth ground clamp (U) has been installed and recheck the connections. Verify the clamp is tightly fastened directly to the copper pipe for a robust ground connection. Press reset button on valve control module. SST faucet components are in contact with metal parts of the sink or plumbing. Be sure that all of the SST faucet components (cover plate, white plastic screw spacers, brass shank, metal washer, braided hoses) or any components for the sink (metal sink lip / mounting hardware) or countertop (i.e. metal support brackets / structural parts) are not in contact and are spaced from each other. Press reset button on valve control module after making any adjustments 5 Intermittent cycling and /or faucet actuation is overly sensitive Isolation parts are not installed or not installed correctly. If you can touch the sink and the faucet activates, the unit installation is improper. Check that isolation components (W, Z, & G) are used and installed correctly. If the sink is of a metal composition, verify the sink ground connection (BB) is in place and installed properly. 6 Faucet doesn t shut off after you pull your hands away Drain grounding not connected or assembled. Check that the drain ground (V) is assembled to the threaded portion of the metal drain ring (not on the pipe) and is connected to the tab on the valve control module (K). Press reset button on valve control module after making any adjustments. 7 Water stays on There is sensor short to ground or unit is not calibrating. Dial set to the open position or not turned to the full auto position Press reset button located on the face of the valve control module (K). The valve should close and the water will stop running. Let unit recalibrate for 20 seconds and verify faucet activation. If water continues to run, then there is an error in the installation and grounding scheme (see troubleshooting above). Turn the knob on the side of the valve control module (K) fully to the auto position (until it hits the stop) and actuate the faucet by placing your hand near the spout. Water should stop running and unit will return to the normal idle operation mode when you remove your hand from the spout. 8 Leaky faucet Debris or particulate matter is trapped in valve Dial not turned to the full auto position Turn off water source valves. Remove aerator from end of the spout (A) and examine for dirt and particulates. Inspect and clean input dirt filter (T). Reinsert filter and turn water source back on. Actuate faucet several times without the aerator installed to flush any debris from the valve mechanism until dripping has ceased. Reinstall aerator. Turn the knob on the side of the valve control module (K) fully to the auto position (until it hits the stop) and actuate the faucet several times by placing your hand near the spout. Water should stop running or dripping and unit will return to the normal idle operation mode once you remove your hand from the spout. 9 Increase or decrease water flow Size of aerator or water supply flow First check that the water supply line valves are fully open and the lines are not restricted. If water flow is not as desired, optional sized aerators to control water flow (0.5 & 2.0 GPM) can be purchased. 10 Water temperature too hot or cold No mixing valve installed or mixing valve needs adjustment Install a mixing valve (M). Adjustments can be made to the valve by resetting the temperature control knob. If more precise or anti scald water temperature control is required, the optional thermostatic control valve (FF) may need to be purchased. 11 Flushing faucet for regulatory protocol Required hygiene or sanitary procedure Turn the knob on the side of the valve control module (K) to the open position to flush faucet. This is a mechanical override of the automatic sensing and will set the valve to a constant open position. Once the water is flushed as required, turn the knob back fully to the auto position (until it hits the stop) and cease water flow by placing hand near faucet and pulling hand away.
